We are expecting approximately one to two hours of down time during the maintenance. Thank you for your understanding.

Between the 20th and the 21st century we assist to a multiplication of colloquia and
international, national, and local summits about the environment. This growing awareness of
preserving, restoring and highlighting the importance of Earth and its ecosystems is reflected
in the artistic world. The present study aims to show that the inclusion of the ecology in the
Arts changes their configuration regarding the space (the location of the artistic work), the
actors (the artist and the public), its function and its goals. The second objective is to illustrate
the concordance between the pragmatist theory and the ecological art. The analysis of the
proximity between the two, allows us to make use of John Dewey’s theory in order to
understand better the functioning of the artistic ecologist objectives. The corpus of the art
works contains three main artists: Francine Larivée from Montreal, Noel Harding from
Toronto, and the American artist Agnes Denes.
